Cookies, cookies, cookies

Like many Americans, our family love to bake really amazing cookies. Chocolate, nuts, spiced, bars, oats, sugar and everything in-between. If you enjoy baking cookies as much as we do, I highly suggest that you get yourself a copy of 


Betty Crocker Cooky Book


http://www.amazon.com/Betty-Crockers-Cooky-Crocker-Editors/dp/0764566377

This book was originally printed in 1963 and I cannot remember a time when we did not have it in my family. An absolute, must-have cookbook for a die-hard cookie fan. Over 450 recipes, some dating as far back as the 1800's. The best thing about this cookbook is that there is a great variety of cookies and all are made with pretty simple, easy-to-find ingredients. Nothing worse than trying to find a spice you can't pronounce, locate or even figure out what it taste like when you are making a recipe. This book keeps it fun and easy and is a perfect gift for all ages.


Enjoy and let us know what your favorite cookie is. We love the Trix Cookies.


Happy Holidays,
